Antibodies raised against the flagellar pocket fraction of Trypanosoma brucei preferentially recognize HSP60 in cDNA expression library
1 Dec 2000
Abstract excerpt
A purified flagellar pocket fraction of the Trypanosoma brucei AnTat 1.1E clone was used for the generation of polyclonal antiserum in rats. Anti-flagellar pocket antibodies present in this serum recognized several proteins distinct from the major variant surface glycoprotein (VSG). In Balb/c mice, flagellar pocket immunization resulted in partial resistance towards the challenge with a low dose of parasites....
